Add note to process::arg[s] that args shouldn't be escaped or quoted
This came out of discussion on [forum](https://users.rust-lang.org/t/how-to-get-full-output-from-command/50626), where I recently asked a question and it turned out that the problem was redundant quotation:
```rust
Command::new("rg")
.arg("\"pattern\"") // this will look for "pattern" with quotes included
```
This is something that has bitten me few times already (in multiple languages actually), so It'd be grateful to have it in the docs, even though it's not sctrictly Rust specific problem. Other users also agreed.
This can be really annoying to debug, because in many cases (inluding mine), quotes can be legal part of the argument, so the command doesn't fail, it just behaves unexpectedly. Not everybody (including me) knows that quotes around arguments are part of the shell and not part of the called program. Coincidentally, somoene had the same problem [yesterday](https://www.reddit.com/r/rust/comments/jkxelc/going_crazy_over_running_a_curl_process_from_rust/) on reddit.
I am not a native speaker, so I welcome any corrections or better formulation, I don't expect this to be merged as is. I was also reminded that this is platform/shell specific behaviour, but I didn't find a good way to formulate that briefly, any ideas welcome.
It's also my first PR here, so I am not sure I did everything correctly, I did this just from Github UI.
Fix doc links to std::fmt
`std::format` and `core::write` macros' docs linked to `core::fmt` for format string reference, even though only `std::fmt` has format string documentation (and the link titles were `std::fmt`)

Constantify more BTreeMap and BTreeSet functions
Just because we can:
- `BTreeMap::len`
- `BTreeMap::is_empty`
- `BTreeSet::len`
- `BTreeSet::is_empty`
Note that I put the `const` under `const_btree_new`, because I don't think their is a need to create another feature flag for that.
cc #71835
make exp_m1 and ln_1p examples more representative of use
With this PR, the examples for `exp_m1` would fail if `x.exp() - 1.0` is used instead of `x.exp_m1()`, and the examples for `ln_1p` would fail if `(x + 1.0).ln()` is used instead of `x.ln_1p()`.
Add std::panic::panic_any.
The discussion of #67984 lead to the conclusion that there should be a macro or function separate from `std::panic!()` for throwing arbitrary payloads, to make it possible to deprecate or disallow (in edition 2021) `std::panic!(arbitrary_payload)`.
Alternative names:
- `panic_with!(..)`
- ~~`start_unwind(..)`~~ (panicking doesn't always unwind)
- `throw!(..)`
- `panic_throwing!(..)`
- `panic_with_value(..)`
- `panic_value(..)`
- `panic_with(..)`
- `panic_box(..)`
- `panic(..)`
The equivalent (private, unstable) function in `libstd` is called `std::panicking::begin_panic`.
I suggest `panic_any`, because it allows for any (`Any + Send`) type.
_Tracking issue: #78500_
Prevent String::retain from creating non-utf8 strings when abusing panic
Fixes#78498
The idea is the same as `Vec::drain`, set the len to 0 so that nobody can observe the broken invariant if it escapes the function (in this case if `f` panics)
Improve documentation for slice strip_* functions
Prompted by the stabilisation tracking issue #73413 I looked at the docs for `strip_prefix` and `strip_suffix` for both `str` and `slice`, and I felt they could be slightly improved.
Thanks for your attention.

Uplift `temporary-cstring-as-ptr` lint from `clippy` into rustc
The general consensus seems to be that this lint covers a common enough mistake to warrant inclusion in rustc.
The diagnostic message might need some tweaking, as I'm not sure the use of second-person perspective matches the rest of rustc, but I'd like to hear others' thoughts on that.
(cc #53224).
r? `@oli-obk`
The lint checks arguments in calls to `transmute` or functions that have
`Pointer` as a trait bound and displays a warning if the argument is a function
reference. Also checks for `std::fmt::Pointer::fmt` to handle formatting macros
although it doesn't depend on the exact expansion of the macro or formatting
internals. `std::fmt::Pointer` and `std::fmt::Pointer::fmt` were also added as
diagnostic items and symbols.

BTreeMap: move generic support functions out of navigate.rs
A preparatory step chipped off #78104, useful in general (if at all).
r? `@Mark-Simulacrum`
Add [T]::as_chunks(_mut)
Allows getting the slices directly, rather than just through an iterator as in `array_chunks(_mut)`. The constructors for those iterators are then written in terms of these methods, so the iterator constructors no longer have any `unsafe` of their own.
Unstable, of course. #74985
